Basic updating of BackboneRails.com Episode 6 Demo App to Rails 4 with a few minor additions.

• Obviously, Rails 4.0.1
• Update to Backbone 1.1.0, Marionette 1.4.1 - both resulting in minor changes in Wreqr calls
• Using postgresql as DB for a closer to production feel
• Use of native JBuilder instead of RABL gem
• Update of Twitter Bootstrap to 3.0.3 and removal of associated cruft from HTML - moving it into SASS @extend statements
• Minor accommodations for Gon gem implementation to account for slight incompatibility with Rails 4 - strange partial patterns addressed with minor changes to original Demo code.
• Completion of minor functionality

The usual using Thin.

bundle install
bower install

Remove my database.yml (configured for my systems allow me to check it in) and rename database.example.yml, add password and user name then:

rake db:setup

to load small user database seed. Then run it.
